Autonomous vehicle routing strategies analyzed for market efficiency

A new paper explores market efficiency in the context of autonomous vehicle fleets, proposing randomized routing strategies. The research suggests that unpredictable travel times for human-driven vehicles, resulting from randomized CAV routing, can be more efficient than system-optimum or user-equilibrium routing when human drivers show diverse attitudes towards CAVs. The authors recommend augmenting market-share objectives with mean system-wide travel time to encourage cooperation and social welfare. AI

IMPACT This research could inform the development of more efficient and socially beneficial routing algorithms for autonomous vehicle fleets.

    Randomized routing strategies of fleets of CAVs may prove market efficient

    In future cities every driver may own a vehicle which could be either independently driven (HDV), or autonomously routed and piloted (CAV). The autonomous operations could be handled by a few competing companies. What is the market structure which would make this market aligned w…
